Abstract

This study deals with the effect of different male somatotypes on men´s shirt pattern design. First, the research is focused on study the proportions among body dimensions of 200 Czech male (subjects) aged from 18 to 60 years, height; chest and waist that mainly define men clothing sizes. Four men´s shirt pattern making methods; Czech, German, Italian and Chinese were analysed. The results indicate that the shirt patterns are mostly drawn out using a constant value for generating the design dimensions instead of using a regression equation for value calculation. These patternmaking methods are totally inadequate for drafting patterns to fit a wide range of men’s bodies (male morphology). To solve this problem, this paper examines a proposal for a pattern making method for a men´s slim fit shirt that uses the results of regression analysis of anthropometric data of the Czech men to match the pattern design parameters
